2016–2017 Theme
God loves you. It ‘s who He is. It’s what He does. He is love and the Source of all love. His love fills the earth from east to west, from the heights of Heaven to the oceans deep. It overflows!
This is the beat of His heart: “May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and everyone else, just as ours does for you” (1 Thessalonians 3:12).
And when we accept His love and absorb its width, length, height, and depth, it radically changes the way we love. Knowing and seeing God’s love is the key to loving Him, each other, and everyone else. From the overflow of His love, we love.
May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you.
1 Thessalonians 3:12

2016-2017 Theme
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:1–2
Paul often uses competition as an allegory for life, and the author of Hebrews does the same here. When it comes to a life of serving God, we are participants, not spectators.
412 Youth Group

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
I Timothy 4:12
